Fun With Plarn

On Facebook, Red Heart had a link to an article about ladies who crochet grocery-bag mats for the homeless.  I thought I'd try my hand at making one. Go to http://www.myrecycledbags.com/2007/02/17/instructions-for-cutting-plastic-bags-creating-recycled-plastic-yarn/ to find out how to make plarn(plastic yarn).  I'm using an H crochet hook.  If my calculations are correct I'll need approx. 300 bags to finish this more or less.  It may take a whole year to collect and work up this mat.  Just another project on the side:~D
